Coral – Layout 3
It seems we just can't get enough of fall! Today's steal, the Bella Blvd. Finally Fall collection, has the perfect blend of warm and cool tones to fit every fall paper crafting need! Today guest sketcher Lori Allen, who wows my world week after week, shows us just how fun the Finally Fall collection can be!
• • • • •
Kristy Lee asking me to guest sketch was the biggest boost of confidence I've ever had regarding my scrapbooking. I just putter along with Mid Week Mojo when I can amid a busy schedule of full time nurse, wife, and mom to two young boys and a dog. I don't think I'm that creative, but I'm getting better from the 70 MWM's I have participated in and everyone's ideas.
That being said, how can your projects not be great when using a kit like Bella Blvd's Finally Fall? I did a little dance when I learned I was working with this line. Finally Fall is full of fresh autumn colors with lots of teal, pink, dark blue, and cranberry, so it can be used for any theme. I love the trees, outlines of leaves, owls, wood grain, houses, and two pages of fun stickers!
Finally Fall is so full of crisp and clean goodness I just kept doing layout after layout. I'll just leave you with two sketches and look forward to seeing what everyone comes up with!

Pinecone Lamp Finial
Source: Martha Stewart Living, November 2008
Bring a bit of the forest indoors by decorating a lamp finial with a pinecone, plain or spray-painted silver. If your lamp doesn't already have a basic finial -- the small piece that screws onto the top of a lamp's harp -- you can buy one at the hardware store.
Lamp Finial How-To
1. Sand the bottom of the pinecone to create a smooth surface.
2. Dab a bit of hot glue onto the flattened area, and press the pinecone onto the top of the finial.

Before reporting an electricity outage, take steps to determine if it is NYSEG's responsibility:
Do your neighbors have power?
Are the streetlights lit?
Are your breakers tripped or fuses blown?
Do you have no lights in only one room?
If you answered yes to any of the above, the problem may be with your equipment. Do not report an outage online. If NYSEG responds and finds that the problem is with your electrical equipment, you will be billed for our service call. Please call us at 1.800.572.1131 to discuss your electricity outage.
Click "continue" to report your outage or see if we have any updated restoration information for the outage you have already reported.

Accountability is everything
Free markets only work when there are incentives and feedback mechanisms to encourage people to do the right thing. While America isn't the freest economy in the world, it's in the 95th percentile, which (with its commitment to democracy and free speech) has been the key to its economic success.
There were two tidbits this morning in the WSJ, one encouraging, one not.
The encouraging one was the decision of the Olin Foundation to go out of business. The creation of permanent, self-perpetuation nonprofit foundations is among the most foolish vanities of their (vain and often foolish) millionaire donors, for exactly the reason that Peter Flanigan has said:
Perpetual foundations are quite silly. They exist for the benefit of trustees and staff rather than for the goals set forth by the original donor.Fortunately, donor John Olin created a foundation that did go out of business, a model other donors (Bill Gates?) should emulate.
The less encouraging note was a series of letters responding to a column by Ethan Penner earlier this month that identified the huge moral hazard created by the Federal Reserve's "too big to fail" policy. Letter writer Thomas Shively was even more emphatic:
Those who fault the Fed … primarily focus on the exceptionally loose monetary policy …. [This was] only one example of the so-called Greenspan 'put,' now the Bernanke put -- the embodiment of the Fed's long-standing policy of always running to the rescue, while letting the good times roll, which has fostered the culture of moral hazard.Giving away a "put" to investors, large and small, assures that put will be exercised and that Uncle Sam spends ever-more money bailing out less prudent or more reckless members of society. It's almost enough to make one wish Ron Paul had achieved electoral success, since on this one issue he's 100% right.
There is tremendous irony, and common sense, in the realization that multiple successful rescues of the financial system by the Fed over several decades will eventually create a risk-taking culture that even the Fed will no longer be able to single-handedly save, at least not without serious inflationary consequences or help from foreigners to avoid a dollar collapse.
Ironically, I found this on the day that the WSJ reported that its new owner no longer is content to have the country's most important business publication. Instead, Rupert Murdoch will be de-emphasizing business coverage (and longer stories in general) to offer a center-right competitor to the center-left NY Times. I don't know if this means we'll have less intelligent coverage of economic issues in the WSJ, or just less coverage, but it's a big opportunity for Business Week, Fortune and Forbes (and perhaps the FT as well).

Once again, Florida will begin the season ranked in the top 10 in both major college basketball polls.
Once again, Florida will begin the season ranked in the top 10 in both major college basketball polls.
The Gators are ranked No. 10 in the preseason AP men's college basketball poll released Thursday. Florida is ranked 8th in the USA Today preseason college poll.
Florida returns two starters and seven scholarship players from a team that finished 29-8 and reached the Elite Eight for the third straight season. But given the injuries and unknowns surrounding the Gators, Donovan doesn't view his team among the nation's elite.
"We're not even remotely close to being top 10 in the country right now." Donovan said.
Injuries and illnesses of several players have taken their toll on the quality of practice. Florida has only had four players healthy and consistent for the entire preseason camp — center Patric Young, forward Casey Prather, point guard Kasey Hill and Walker.
"With the limited numbers we have had, we have practiced fairly decent," Donovan said. "We need to have a little bit more urgency than we have right now. We've had some really good practices. We had a great practice on Sunday. We were really good yesterday. But there's too much inconsistency, and part of that is hard for me to really put my finger on just because we've had so many players coming in and out of practice. That's probably had some kind of factor on it. But right now we're not as consistent as we need to be."
The Gators will need to sort through those issues soon. In its non-conference schedule, Florida will have four matchups with preseason Top 25 teams:- Nov. 12 at No. 20 Wisconsin, Dec. 2 at No. 18 Connecticut, Dec. 10 at home vs. No. 5 Kansas and Dec. 17 vs. No. 13 Memphis at the Jimmy V Classic in New York City.

Millions of Americans have been diagnosed with type 2 diabetes, but with the disease on the rise, even among children, it's very possible that millions more are afraid to find out.
To raise awareness, American Diabetes Association Alert Day is observed on the fourth Tuesday in March, every year. It is a one-day "wake-up call" from the American Diabetes Association, asking Americans to take the Diabetes Risk Test to determine if they are at risk of developing type 2 diabetes.
But why are we limiting increased awareness to just one day? Knowledge is power, all year round.
Sign the pledge to assess your risk for diabetes and take steps to prevent the onset of the disease.
Pledge to spread the word, take precaution, and learn about the importance of detecting if you are at risk of prediabetes or type 2 diabetes. Help raise awareness to family and loved one who may be at risk too, then sign the pledge to check yourself before type 2 takes over!
I pledge to...
Let's stop the promotion of unhealthy eating habits leading to a diabetes diagnosis in our kids!

BOISE, Idaho (AP) — A United Airlines captain suffered an apparent heart attack while piloting a plane from Houston to Seattle and passengers stepped in to help with a doctor performing CPR and an off-duty pilot assisting in the emergency landing in Idaho.
The captain was still alive when he arrived at Saint Alphonsus Regional Medical Center but died overnight while undergoing treatment, spokeswoman Jennifer Krajnik said Friday. A Boise airport spokeswoman said Thursday that the man suffered an apparent heart attack. The cause of death has not been announced.
The news lit up social media in the early morning hours Friday, with dozens of tweets sent out about the pilot's death.
Passenger Ken Martin told Seattle TV station KOMO a first-year resident doctor sitting next to him volunteered to help perform CPR. She told Martin the pilot appeared to weigh over 300 pounds and was taken into the first class cabin where CPR was performed.
Passenger Bryant Magill described a calm scene onboard.
"I'm really impressed with all the flight attendants," Magill told KOMO. "They kept themselves calm. They kept it professional. There was no panic on the plane."
The airline did not give the pilot's name, citing privacy reasons.
"I am sad to confirm that our co-worker passed away last night. Our thoughts are with his family at this time," spokeswoman Christen David said in an email.
Another off-duty United pilot was onboard and helped land the plane, David said.
Pilots are required to get medical certificates that show they don't have major heart problems, according to the Federal Aviation Administration website.
United flight 1603 from Houston to Seattle diverted to Boise for the medical emergency. The flight landed safely about 8 p.m. local time and was met by paramedics who took the pilot to the hospital. The Boeing 737-900 had 161 passengers and a crew of six on board.
David says another pilot flew the original plane and passengers to Sea-Tac Airport.

Mary Jo Miller, age 58, loves her grandkids — she has five, ranging from 3 to 8 years old — and they keep her days full of excitement and activity. When she was seriously overweight, however, she found it interfered with ability to keep up with them.
She'd tried different weight loss approaches and had achieved some success. But after sustaining an injury that prevented her from her normal physical activity, the weight returned.
In the following seven years, Mary Jo began to develop health problems, such as high cholesterol, arthritis in her knees, and borderline diabetes. She made the decision then that something had to change.
After speaking with another patient who'd had gastric bypass surgery, Mary Jo became interested in surgical procedures and researched options online. A nurse practitioner at her primary care practice suggested the LAP-BAND® system, and her husband encouraged it as well.
Before her surgery in January 2011 at UPMC Hamot, Mary Jo weighed 256 pounds. Now two years later, she has lost 86 pounds, feels great, and has achieved a happy, comfortable weight.
Mary Jo says she found the staff at UPMC Hamot extremely helpful. They answered all of her questions and kept her completely informed of the surgical process. She expresses confidence in her board-certified bariatric surgeon, who provided his expertise, comfort, and support.
Mary Jo maintains her happy and healthy weight by working out on the elliptical three to four times a week, staying conscious of her food choices, and "chasing after her five grandkids." She said her surgery was definitely worth it and she feels better now than ever before.
When asked about her advice for potential future patients she says, "It's a lot of work and a whole new life adjustment." She explains that she must take her time when eating and be conscious of new foods.
"I feel so much healthier," she says. "I can do a lot more and spend more quality time with my grandkids."

I've been noting in my writings and in my various tweets since Monday of last week that intermarket trends have been behaving more positively following the elections.
The post-QE3 corrective period has thus far, with hindsight, looked stunningly similar to the May "mini-correction" which was my base case for how the decline would play out, within the context of the "Fall Catalyst" idea of new all time highs in the Dow by end of year.
"An optimist may see a light where there is none, but why must the pessimist always run to blow it out?"
Stock market resilience cannot be denied. The S&P 500 is still on track for being the third best year in a decade performance-wise, and the German DAX is bumping up against 25% returns for the year. For all intents and purposes, equities have indeed behaved in a reflationary way.
Our ATAC models used for managing our mutual fund and separate accounts are extremely close to pulling the trigger on an aggressive allocation back into stocks, with a bit more confirmation needed to switch out of bonds.
How could this be when the so-called fiscal cliff is still such a risk? Why would stocks go up in the face of no deal being made yet, and with the world now focused on our government now that Europe has completed a debt deal with Greece?
First, consider that the fiscal cliff and "damage" done by going over it is extremely well publicized, with numerous websites and news programs actually going so far as to create a counter for how many days are left to get a deal done. Say what you will about Republicans or Democrats — in a democracy, you don't get elected through austerity as I said on CNBC recently.
The odds favor that a deal is struck in some way shape or form, lessening the depth of the cliff. However the details are worked out, in theory any kind of compromise would be bond bullish.
If spending cuts are made, the Treasury will end up issuing less debt, causing a reduction in new bond supply issuances presumably. We all know that the Fed plans on buying Treasurys at a constant rate from now until kingdom come. That inherently means bond prices continue to get bid up not because of new demand, but because of shrinking supply.
Would those spending cuts lessen economic growth? Perhaps, but if bond yields continue to hold at panic low levels on those spending cuts, it may be bullish for stocks due specifically to the "Bear Paradox" idea I have referenced on numerous occasions recently.
The Bear Paradox is the idea that with bond yields at such incredibly low levels, any kind of a deep correction and risk-off period would make stocks instantly more attractive as a better income play than fixed income. The more stocks decline, the higher dividend yields go relative to bond yields, which would likely only get closer to zero during such corrective periods.
As the gap of income widens between stocks and bonds (barring a credit event), money buys into stocks to take advantage of comparative higher yield. In an upcoming writing Marc Faber of the Gloom Boom and Doom Report will publish of mine in December, I greatly expand on this concept within the context of what I call the Fed's last hope for the economy.
If we go over some variation of the fiscal cliff then, and that ends up being bond bullish, then the Bear Paradox gets even more accentuated, causing stocks to outperform. Take a look below at the price ratio of the Pimco 7-15 Year U.S. Treasury Index ETF US:TENZ relative to the S&P 500 SPY, +0.35% As a reminder, a rising price ratio means the numerator/TENZ is outperforming (up more/down less) the denominator/SPY. For a larger chart, visit here.
Note that the spike up in bonds relative to stocks abruptly reversed, and may now be back in a downtrend. Given the Bear Paradox, this should make sense given that yields are once again at absurdly low levels, making stocks more attractive as money puts a bid into stocks.
If the fiscal Ccff keeps yields depressed, the Bear Paradox alone makes stocks an asset class to be bullish on (barring a credit event or massive economic slowdown). This in turn then makes the ratio fall at least to the prior support level of around 0.59, and may result in the Fall Catalyst of new highs happening all in December.
This is an important juncture — price continues to not think the fiscal cliff will either a) happen, or b) happen and not matter for markets. Either way, we may be nearing a point where the odds of another "melt-up" in stocks takes place independent of how the fiscal cliff negotiations play out, which can be very tradable in the near-term for those willing to listen to price.

For gears it is tough to beat the online wooden gear generator at woodgears.ca. It lets you specify size and number of gears, and also lets you see how they mesh and tweak a bunch of variables. I usually print these to pdf and then import them as vector to illustrator. With this site you can build any number of compatible gears. They have rather large teeth because they are meant to be cut out of wood with a bandsaw, but they will work very well for low-precision work. There is also an inkscape plugin that generates gears as described here by MAKE.
One note on importing all of these files into illustrator. Illustrator has strange import prefs, and if you import a dxf that is in mm, and your preferences are in inches, centimeters, or anything else, then it will scale your drawing on import. Be careful. This is an easy way to mess up at the very first step.
Timing belt cogs are another deal entirely. There isn't an online generator. There are a few python scripts that purport to build cogs, but they never seem to work right. One other way to do it is with blender and a plugin, but then you end up doing more 3d modeling than cutting.
To build one in illustrator you will need to know the belt you plan on using and the number of teeth you want the cog to have. You will also want to go to sdp-si and download an example any cog that uses your belt pitch. Set your units to mm in illustrator>preferences>units. Grab the dxf of that cog and open it up in illustrator.
More than likely you will see something similar to the image below. It has two example teeth showing the tooth spacing, but the entire cog isn't drawn out as a time saving measure.
here's how to duplicate out the rest of the teeth and more.

25 Influential Black Women in Business
New York (Vocus) March 20, 2008 –
Lurita Doan, Administrator of the U.S. General Services Administration (GSA), was today honored as one of The Network Journal's most influential black women in business during the publication's 10th annual awards ceremony.
A monthly magazine dedicated to educating and empowering black professionals and small business owners, The Network Journal held its ceremony at the New York Marriott Marquis, awarding Administrator Doan and 24 other women across the country representing executive leadership from fields as diverse as television, higher education, healthcare and telecommunications.
Administrator Doan is the only honoree from federal government. Winners of the "25 Influential Black Women in Business" award were announced in the March 2008 edition.
As administrator of GSA, Administrator Doan is responsible for 12,000 employees and $550 billion in government spending (more than one-fourth of the U.S. government's total procurement dollars.) The recipient of several other awards for innovation and entrepreneurship, Administrator Doan comes from a family of entrepreneurs dating back to her grandmother, who owned an insurance company and rental property and was among the first black women entrepreneurs at the turn of the 20th century. Additionally, her father founded a business school.
Administrator Doan herself founded a surveillance technology company in 1990 and remained its president, CEO and sole owner until 2005. She was appointed as the first woman to be GSA Administrator in 2006.
GSA provides a centralized delivery system of products and services to the federal government, leveraging its enormous buying power to get the best value for taxpayers.
- Founded in 1949, GSA manages more than one-fourth of the government's total procurement dollars and influences the management of $500 billion in federal assets, including 8,600 government-owned or leased buildings and 208,000 vehicles.
- GSA helps preserve our past and define our future, as a steward of more than 425 historic properties, and as manager of USA.gov, the official portal to federal government information and services.
- GSA's mission to provide superior workplaces, expert technology solutions, acquisition services, purchasing and E-Gov travel solutions and management policies, at best value, allows federal agencies to focus on their core missions.
Did You Know? Administrator Doan led GSA to be ranked in 2007 as one of the best places to work in the federal government.

A doctor is trying to get his patient, an overweight man with diabetes, to lose some weight. "I want you to eat what you always do for two days, then skip a day, then repeat this for two weeks. When you come back, you should have lost five pounds." A month later when the patient returns, he's lost 20 pounds. The doctor is amazed. "Was it hard to follow my instructions?" he asks. "Well, on the third day, I thought I'd die," the man replied. The doctor nodded. "From hunger? " "No," the man replied, "From the skipping."
If you laughed at this joke, you may have just improved your blood glucose, at least according to a study at the University of Tsukuba in Ibaraki, Japan. Researchers there found that people who laughed at a comedy show after dinner experienced a lower spike in blood sugar following their meal than those who didn't do something that made them laugh. The conclusion, as reported in the May issue of Diabetes Care, was that for patients with diabetes, "daily opportunities for laughter" are important.
Although this may be the first study looking at the link between laughter and blood sugar, there has been plenty of research showing that having a sense of humor can help people with diabetes live healthier lives. Dr. William Fry of Stanford University, for example, has reported from his research that laughing improves oxygen flow, helps blood vessels expand and contract more easily, and stimulates heart and blood circulation, just like any standard aerobic exercise.
The cardiovascular benefits are so great that a study at the University of Maryland Medical Center concluded that laughter may help prevent heart disease. Another humor researcher, Dr. Lee Berk of Loma Linda University, has concluded that regular laughter helps boost the immune system and raise antibody levels. There are also hundreds of studies documenting the benefits of laughter on reducing stress levels and helping us feel less anxious about health and other problems in our lives.
But can you actually improve your sense of humor? The answer is a resounding "Yes." Like any other healthy activity, by setting goals and regularly practicing new behavior, you'll eventually get better at finding the funny in everyday life. The good news is that learning to use your sense of humor to boost your health is actually fun.
Your Laughter Goal
Studies have found that on average, American adults laugh about fifteen times a day (compared to hundreds of times for young children.) You probably don't have any idea what your LL (laughter level) is, so try keeping a log of every laugh you get during the next week. An initial goal is to laugh once an hour, which will get you up to average. Once there, you should then try to find something to laugh at least twice an hour. Just as with exercise, a little is good, but more is better (unless, of course, you've recently had your appendix removed). But unlike exercise, it is better to laugh a little throughout the day than to try to laugh for a solid 20 minutes at a time.
Becoming a Better Laugher
Most people think that the best way to put more laughter in their lives is to start watching funny movies or stand-up comedy. In fact, those can help. But the truth is that most of the things we laugh at every day aren't meant to be funny-they're just things that happen and we choose to find the humor in them. For example, I was once almost run over by a guy driving a Jeep Cherokee with a bumper sticker on the back that read, "Mean people suck." Rather than fuming about the situation, I laughed (especially after I decided that the driver probably hadn't put that bumper sticker there himself, and I imagined a neighbor sneaking over under cover of darkness to do the deed).
Life throws funny stuff at us all the time, but we are often too busy to pay any attention to it. And many of us have voices in our heads that remind us to "Grow up and get serious," tell us to "Act our age," or insist "That's not funny." When it comes to using your sense of humor to live a healthier life, a good first step is to let go of your need to be serious all the time. The ability to feel playful and receptive to the lighter side of everything-including diabetes and its complications-can help you easily get more laughter in your life.
Try these out for laughs
Reconnect with your inner five-year-old. At five, we don't have many responsibilities and our lives are primarily about having fun. Remember when your mother would call you in for dinner and you'd respond with "I'm not done having fun yet?" We may not be able to age backwards, but we can definitely spend some more time acting childlike.
- Carry a picture of your younger self in your wallet next to your driver's license as a reminder of the more playful you
- Play with your young kids or grandkids or those of friends and family on a regular basis
- Use your whole body for play. Go to a local school on the weekend and teeter-totter; invite your friends to play Leapfrog or Red Rover; or take an improv class. All of these are good ways to reconnect your funny bone with the rest of your body (and you'll get exercise to boot).
Take humor breaks to release tension
Take laughter breaks during moments of stress. Just as laughter can improve our health, stress can make it worse, so the ability to laugh during stress is doubly effective at helping us live better lives.
- Read funny greeting cards when you're about to boil over. There are so many different types of greeting cards, you're bound to find some that turn on your sense of humor.
Walk funny. No, I don't mean like Monty Python's Ministry of Silly Walks (although those episodes always makes me laugh…look up "Ministry of Silly Walks" on YouTube…) Just go for a walk and look for things that make you giggle-a squirrel taunting a cat or a Golden Retriever enamored of a dachshund. I once saw a teenager whose low-rider pants actually did fall off while he was walking down the street listening to his iPod. I just knew that would happen if I waited long enough.
- Buy silly things to distract yourself. If you find yourself regularly getting annoyed while on hold, for example, you might keep a pirate finger puppet on your desk and use pirate lingo to crack yourself up until an operator comes on the line.
- Just fake it. Studies show you don't have to feel like laughing to get the benefits of just doing it.
- Make funny friends. Funny friends not only make you laugh easily and often (if they didn't, they wouldn't be your funny friends, now would they?), they can also teach you how to look for the funnier side of life. I have a friend named Nick who is very heavy. One day we went to lunch and the waitress took a long time to make it to our table. "I'm sorry about the wait," she apologized. Nick smiled at her and said, "Honey, I've weighed this much for so long, it really doesn't bother me any more." Spending lots of time with friends who crack you up can help you achieve your humor goals.
When it comes to managing diabetes, laughter may not be the best medicine, but it certainly is a great (and fun) tool for living a healthier, longer life.
Leigh Anne Jasheway is a humor and health expert who has been teaching people how to lighten up for fifteen years. She is the author of fifteen books, including Don't Get Mad, Get Funny and Yoga for Your Funny Bone.

Beautiful Breakfasts and Scrumptious Dinners
An open air terrace above the beautiful botanical garden of the Pura Vida. Our special dinners are by advanced reservation only. There are no restaurants within walking distance of the hotel however we can call a taxi or teleport you to local restaurants not far from the hotel if you prefer.
The Pura Vida dinner service is an ongoing evolution that started in a tiny restaurant overlooking the Pacific on the remote southern end of the Nicoya peninsular.
Our host that night was Barbara of the Finca Los Caballos, near Montezuma. She gave us the idea for a simple but delicious prix fixe dinner that has evolved into our gourmet experience.
Later our ideas emerged into a public restaurant inspired by Grandmas kitchen in Saigon and which reached #1 on Tripadvisor. Today we are a private dining experience in the Orchid covered terrace garden of the Pura Vida - exclusively for our guests.
"Do not miss the gourmet dinner prepared by his lovely wife. It will be one of the best, if not the best,meals you will have in Costa Rica. It is a three course fixed priced feast. The meal is prepared with fresh ingredients obtained at the market that day. An intimate dinner at the hotel after a long day of travel makes the stay even more rewarding." Luigi in California on TripAdvisor
Our Day
Near the equator, dawn arrives nearly all year round at 5:15am, the chickens of the neighborhood, the birds of the central valley and the people of Costa Rica are all getting up.
Ticos after all are early to bed and early to rise. The casa opens at 7am (fresh Costa Rican coffee is available in all the rooms at any time). The Orchid Restaurant is up and running at about 7:15am every day with breakfast starting at 7:30am and going till 9:30am. Most afternoons you will find the owners scavenging the neighborhood for the best and freshest of ingredients. The hotel is fortunate enough to be within 500 meters (as the crow flies) of the best supermarket in Costa Rica and 2 or 3 km from the best farmers market too - open Fridays and Saturdays. Dinner prep starts around 4pm. Dinner, when available, starts around 7pm.
"Fresh aint much of a secret" but super fresh ingredients from our local Alajuela markets and some creative cooking gets you our delicious breakfasts and dinners at the Pura Vida.
"The breakfasts, served on a spacious outdoor patio, are delicious and definitely worthwhile to book ahead for one of Nhi's 3-course dinners." Bev in Seattle, from TripAdvisor.com.
"Nhi is an exceptionally gifted, creative chef, so we recommend making advance arrangements to have dinner at the hotel", Lisa in Maryland on TripAdvisor.com
You have choices, choices and choices. When you stay at a hotel in Costa Rica we hope you'll think of the small B&B's, Lodges and Inns - places where you will learn something about the local environment run by people who live in and invest in this beautiful country . . . we hope we may welcome you back for your next trip!

County workers look for disaster unemployment assistance
County workers look for disaster unemployment assistance
EL RENO, Okla. —
Canadian County workers looking for disaster unemployment assistance following recent severe weather in the area don't have much longer to apply.
Workers and self-employed people in the county who lost work or earnings due to severe storms and tornadoes in May and June have until July 12 to apply for disaster unemployment insurance. The insurance is available to those who don't qualify for regular state unemployment benefits.
To be eligible, people must have worked in the disaster area and no longer have a job because of the disaster. They can also apply if a disaster-related injury or illness has prevented them from working.

Tiny House in a Landscape
This week's Tiny House in a Landscape is a series of photographs taken by Jennifer Borek who publishes her own blog at www.kannallc.com. Jennifer took a tour of the Kansas prairie today where she is temporarily living (long-term contract).
The photos are of the Kaw House a reconstructed model built in 1961. The government built these on the Kaw Reservation. However, the Kaws preferred living in their own tipis and bark-and-mat lodges and they ended up being used as shelters for their animals.
Thank you Jennifer for sharing your photos and this interesting bit of history.

NEW YORK, N.Y. - Stocks ended a tough week on a down note Friday, hurt by retailers and companies that are sensitive to rising interest rates. The Dow Jones industrial average had its worst week of the year.
The Dow edged down 30 points, or 0.2 per cent, to close at 15,081. The Standard & Poor's 500 index fell five points, or 0.3 per cent, to 1,655. The Nasdaq eased three points, or 0.09 per cent, to 3,602.
The possibility of a cutback in the Federal Reserve's massive bond-buying program in September has roiled the bond market. The 10-year Treasury note rose to 2.83 per cent, its highest level since July 2011. A week ago, the yield was 2.58 per cent.
Shares of utilities and telecommunications companies, which typically perform poorly in a higher interest-rate environment, closed broadly lower.

Average Rating: 4.6 out of 5 based on 193 user reviews.
Fred Thanks so much for your in-depth [viagra u.k] analysis and reviews of the leading virtual pbx systems. My search has lead me to RingCentral and Virtual PBX. I thought I was finally at a point to make a decision when I came across some rather disconcerting reviews of RingCentral. The reviewers' claims were related to RingCentral's reliability. Specifically, the reviewers on PCMag. com stated they experienced: - inbound calls going straight to voicemail - long outages (8+ hours) nearly twice a month for maintenance - slow and untrained customer service with long hold times - poor VoIP sound quality (this viagra u.k isn't an issue for me as I will retain my current VoIP through Time Warner Cable) The reviews I'm referring to range in date from Nov 2008 to Apr 2009. It seems as though you've had a great deal of experience with RingCentral, so I wanted to ask if you've had instances of these issues. My biggest concern is reliability. In your opinion, would I be better suited going with VirtualPBX for the sake of reliability (assuming both services would satisfy my needs)? Thank you so much for being willing to take emails! Sincerely, Matt M.Hi Matt, If it's the same reviews I've read I believe they are referring to their voip technology only and not their virtual pbx technology. I haven't used their voip as I prefer the piece of mind of using a landline and cell phone so I can't speak to the quality of their voip product. Here is the link to the article I've read: However, I have used their pbx system extensively and have been extremely pleased. I have never experienced any outages viagra u.k, dropped calls, lost vm, or problems with customer service. Additionally, I haven't heard from any users that have had any problems with RingCentral's virtual pbx system. What I can tell you is that I believe both RingCentral and Virtual PBX are quality companies with robust features. With the exception of a few minor differences in features I highly recommend both companies. Viagra u.k you should feel confident that either company will serve you well. Let me know what you decide and please let me know how your experience has been with the company you choose. Thanks for the question! Fred

I'm posting again because I can't edit the original post. Here I have added a little bit more detailed information to get your game set, and the mod properly installed .
Carset example on YouTube
HD steering wheel examples (1024px ingame)
Some of the contents included:
- Redline GTP v1.0 and v1.1 mod
- Real life and virtual leagues Group C liveries and carsets with correct driver line-ups and performance for single-player use (with filters for Le Mans, IMSA, Grand-Am, OATAS, WOSEC and more)
- GTP-ready tracks and recommended track downloads
- HD steering wheels with easy-click-edits template
- GTP Track Files to make tracks GTP-compatible (includes better new AI setup so it can be competitive offline, new base setups, files to add NR2003 tracks to GTP)
- GTP setups
- Sound update by MethylEthyl
- Pitcrew and car templates
- HD special effects and reflections (work on regular NR 2003 game)
- ThePits GTP EZinstall
- Alcohol 52% (to read disk images without having to use your actual disk) - May need a different version for Windows 10
- Nascar Racing 2003 with 220.127.116.11 patch
Nascar Racing 2003 Season Installation Guide:
1- Load NR2003 in your disk drive (either the disk image or the actual CD) and select install
2- Select folder destination and enter your serial number for installation
3- Run the v1.2 update, and install to same NR 2003 directory
4- Run the Config.exe
5- Load the game to make sure it works
Tutorial for the Redline GTP mod:
Because this mod has its own physics, a clean NR 2003 installation is recommended. For that, you can make a copy of your current install or install the game again on a different folder. I recommend using The Pits GTP EZ-Installer (featured below), to copy your NR 2003 folder and name it "GTP."
- Download and decompress the GTP EZ Installer. Place the "gtp_inst_bat" file in your NR 2003 installation, and run it.
- The program will have copied your NR 2003 installation to a folder called "GTP". Now you're ready to follow the steps below
2- With the mod now installed, make sure the NR2003 disc is in the tray, or the virtual image is loaded, or you have the mod's noCD launcher
3- Load the Redline GTP launcher
4- Click on "Options"
5- Under PROFILE tab, Add New Player (never delete "The Player")
6- Go to GRAPHICS tab, then "Calculate Texture Size." There you enter your video card memory and screen resolution. Max allowed is 2048 (no problem if your card is capable of more, still enter that amount)
7- Hit OK, then on the GTP Launcher select the car category you want
A = Toyota 88C
B = Jaguar XJR-9
C = Sauber Mercedes C9
D = Mazda 787B
8- Select your car livery, and single or multiplayer mode. Hit START and enjoy!
Where to install additional downloads
C:\GTP\Papyrus\Nascar Racing 2003 Season\trackD
Note: Tracks found in the link I provided will all be GTP ready. No ini files to update or known problems.
C:\GTP\Papyrus\Nascar Racing 2003 Season\players\your_name\setups\
Note: The track folder name in the setups folder must match the track folder in the /trackD folder. Each driver profile has it's own set of track folders and setups. You may need to create this folder if you have not been on the particular track yet.
C:\GTP\Papyrus\Nascar Racing 2003 Season\replays
Note: You will need the track installed to view a replay from that track
C:\GTP\Papyrus\Nascar Racing 2003 Season\folder
*** Personal installation tips ***
- I use a virtual disc image so I don't need to rely on "NoCD" files
- I use The US Pits simple program called "GTP EZinstall" which is available through the link, to make a copy of my fresh NR 2003 install folder (NR 2003 updated to 220.127.116.11
- I install anything GTP-related in that folder, which I call GTP
- Under "My Saved Games\Papyrus\" I have both "GTP" and "Nascar Racing 2003 Season" game folders
- Regarding content, I highly recommend downloading the carsets! It's a great experience for single player driving as well as having real life liveries. Also get the HD steering wheels, I made them myself and they also fix a bad reflection mapping issue with the default
1988 Toyota 88C-V
Boasting an 3.2 liter, turbo-charged V8 twin turbo engine producing 800bhp @ 8000 RPM, and 780NM of torque @ 5000 RPM on 935kg, the Toyota is not only a looker but a beast when it comes to top speed. It also features reasonably good brakes and fuel consumption.
However it lacks the downforce and grip of its Group C counterparts, making it a challenging car to drive competitively on smaller circuits especially with the additional weight. The chassis feels a little soft but on a positive note, it is also very maneuverable, meaning it can pull off 4-wheel drifts and survive being overdriven. If you have ever played Grand Prix Legends, this car feels like a 1967 Formula 1 car on steroids and with downforce!
1988 Jaguar XJR-9
Featuring a fantastic 7.0 liter, V12 producing 750bhp @ 7200 RPM, and 828NM torque @ 5500 RPM on 881kg, the 1988 Le Mans winner is an incredible machine. With beautiful looks and sound, the Jaguar's strongest point is the mix of its powerful engine and aerodynamics.
The downside of the grippy, potent package, is that the engine is a bit thirsty. The brakes do not compromise the XJR-9, and overall the car is a great choice for all tracks.
1989 Sauber Mercedes C9
With a 5.0 liter, turbo V8 producing 720bhp @ 7000 RPM, and 810NM of torque @ 3500 RPM, and 905kg, the legendary 1989 Le Mans winner is a fantastic car. It has very good grip, power, and fuel economy to immediately make it a favorite.
There's very little negative to say about this car, except the braking zones are a little longer and if overdriven, it will bite you in the butt likely with the rear stepping out beyond saving. It is important to not brake too late or the load of the car will cause gross understeer. Also, the engine needs plenty of air so don't close the radiator too much.
1991 Mazda 787B
"Small" but mighty, the 1991 Le Mans winner features the legendary 2.6 liter rotary engine with 700bhp @ 9000 RPM, and 608NM of torque @ 6500 RPM, on 830kg. Being so light and with great aerodynamics, the 787B has extremely good braking and is a beast through corners! It also has a very responsive engine but its final gear ratio is much shorter than all other cars. By a lot. It lacks on top speed and also has poor fuel economy.
Despite not being a favorite like its older brothers, the Mazda can be quite competitive especially on tracks with more corners, or featuring slower corners. It usually runs a higher wing that when coupled with the way it accelerates through the gears (short higher-gear ratios is best), can be surprisingly fast. It is also the most beginner friendly because of its forgiving and nimble character.

It is hard, even for many Israelis, to witness the unfolding occupation, or watch the government of Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu throw its weight around, or hear the ways Netanyahu justifies the Jewish state, and not wonder what Zionism really was—and whether, if he's the face of it, the world might have been better off without it. It is also hard for many Americans to watch Netanyahu try to force President Obama's hand on Iran by threatening unilateral action that would destabilize America's global position—with a brazenness much like Bibi's pal Eric Cantor when he tried to force Obama's hand on the debt ceiling—and not wonder if Israel's present government and its lobby are as extortive of America's politicians as the banks, another instance of the tail gracelessly wagging the dog.
In such a climate, the apparent conversion of Peter Beinart—formerly the editor of Martin Peretz's echt-Zionist New Republic, now an opponent of the espoused Zionism of American Jewish organizations—was bound to make the publication of his new book, The Crisis of Zionism, a polarizing event. Ever since it appeared in March, a great many American Jewish leaders and public intellectuals have taken sides. "One positive thing you can say about Peter Beinart's critics," J.J. Goldberg wrote in the Forward, "is that none of them has smacked him in the face with a rifle butt." Even Daniel Gordis, who accused Beinart in the Jerusalem Post of indulging in an "Israel-bashing-fest," admitted that the discussion "is no longer a conversation about what Beinart wrote."
Beinart's shifts in reputation have become so much of the drama surrounding his book, in fact, that many have overlooked what a sharp and ambitious polemic he's written. Over its several hundred pages, The Crisis of Zionism refutes the following claims: that keeping faith with the victims of anti-Semitism means viewing Jewish political power through the lens of the Holocaust; that Israel's legal substructure guarantees the state's democratic character; that holding the West Bank improves Israel's security; that observers of Jewish festivals necessarily derive humanist ideals from them; that Israel's occupation cannot become something akin to apartheid; that Israelis have, despite the ongoing conflict, managed to avoid becoming racist; that Palestine's Fatah leaders are mostly responsible for the breakdown of the Oslo Accords; that Hamas is more committed to Israel's destruction than to the establishment of a Palestinian state; that settlements have not been the main obstacle to peace; that Netanyahu embodies the mainstream of historic Zionism; that Netanyahu and other leaders of the Likud have held back Palestinian rights more out of pragmatism than strident ideology; that President Obama is skeptical of Israel and unsympathetic to American Jews; that Obama was wrong to press for a freeze on settlements early in his administration; and that Israel's Islamic neighbors, such as Turkey and Egypt, would be hostile to Israel irrespective of what Israel does with the Palestinians.
The Crisis of Zionism aims even more powerful demurrals at American Jewish groups like the Conference of Presidents of Major Jewish Organizations, the Anti-Defamation League and the American Israel Public Affairs Committee (AIPAC), all largely responsible for making the roster of claims cited above a catechism for congressional briefings. Though Beinart has much to say about the way Israeli governments have conducted themselves over the years, his true targets are the leaders of these American Jewish organizations. He fiercely rejects their allegations that Jews who publicly criticize Israel's structure and direction, or the current Israeli government, "delegitimize" the state. He is a respectful, indeed a more or less "observant" Jew. He is content to mine Halacha—Jewish law, disciplined study, liturgy, ritual, music—for its contribution to universalist and open-spirited precepts. But he takes pains to distance himself from communities of the "Modern Orthodox" upon whom these organizations increasingly depend. All in all, Beinart's expansive arguments have a circumscribed goal: to discredit the political forces that impede a two-state solution.

LVIV, Ukraine – Diplomats have met in the Ukrainian city of Lviv to discuss the frozen conflict in Moldova's Transdniester region.
Representatives from Russia, Ukraine, the United States, the European Union, and the Organization for Security and Cooperation in Europe (OSCE), as well as Moldova and Transdniester met in the so-called 5+2 format.
At the end of the talks, the OSCE issued a statement urging the sides to maintain momentum in negotiations, which it said will continue in May in Odesa.
The statement also reiterated the proposal to host a meeting between the Moldovan and Transdniestrian leaders this year.
Pro-Russian Transdniester declared independence from mainly Romanian-speaking Moldova in 1990 and fought a war with Moldova in 1992.
Transdniester's independence has not been recognized by any state.

House and Senate Bills to Curb Patent "Trolls" Include AICPA Recommendations
January 30, 2014
Legislation passed in the House (H.R. 3309) and introduced in the Senate (S. 1720) take aim at so-called patent "trolls" or "patent assertion entities" (PAEs), which purchase patents for the express purpose of filing patent infringement lawsuits against companies to get licensing fees or a legal settlement without actually making any goods or providing any services.
CPA firms and state CPA societies are among the many small- and medium-sized businesses that have been targeted by PAEs. The American Institute of CPAs (AICPA) submitted written testimony for recent hearings on H.R. 3309 and S. 1720 in support of the bills and has urged Congress to take swift action on patent troll reform. Earlier this year, the AICPA developed guiding principles for patent troll reform and worked closely with and advised the House and Senate Judiciary Committees about these principles. H.R. 3309 and S. 1720 include several of the AICPA's recommendations.
Fast on the heels of the Innovation Act's largely bipartisan passage in the House on December 5, 2013, Senate Judiciary Committee Chairman Pat Leahy (D-Vt.) held a hearing directed at patent abuse litigation, specifically on the provisions in his bill, S. 1720, the Patent Transparency and Improvements Act. The December 17, 2013 hearing demonstrated the Senate's commitment to a reform process that has gained attention rapidly on Capitol Hill. . Leahy's Patent Transparency and Improvements Act, coauthored by Sen. Mike Lee (R-Utah), is similar to – but more narrow than – House Judiciary Committee Chairman Bob Goodlatte's (R-Va.) Innovation Act.
Patent reform is not likely to advance as quickly in the upper chamber as it did in the House. Chairman Leahy has announced that committee staff will host panel briefings for entities that have objections to the legislation during February. The briefings will conclude by the end of February, and it is expected that the Senate will consider the bill at some point this spring.

Any other operation on untyped constants results in an untyped constant of the same kind; that is, a boolean, integer, floating-point, complex, or string constant. If the untyped operands of a binary operation (other than a shift) are of different kinds, the result is of the operand's kind that appears later in this list: integer, rune, floating-point, complex. For example, an untyped integer constant divided by an untyped complex constant yields an untyped complex constant.
Applying the built-in function
to untyped integer, rune, or floating-point constants yields an untyped complex constant.
Constant expressions are always evaluated exactly; intermediate values and the constants themselves may require precision significantly larger than supported by any predeclared type in the language. The following are legal declarations:
The divisor of a constant division or remainder operation must not be zero:
The values of typed constants must always be accurately representable by values of the constant type. The following constant expressions are illegal:
The mask used by the unary bitwise complement operator
matches the rule for non-constants: the mask is all 1s for unsigned constants and -1 for signed and untyped constants.
Implementation restriction: A compiler may use rounding while computing untyped floating-point or complex constant expressions; see the implementation restriction in the section on
Footlocker Online Cheap Sale Footlocker Knitted top Pinya silver Tigha Sale View New Arrival Clearance Outlet Locations REEDgH3zW
. This rounding may cause a floating-point constant expression to be invalid in an integer context, even if it would be integral when calculated using infinite precision, and vice versa.

of an expression, assignment, or return statement , all function calls, method calls, and communication operations are evaluated in lexical left-to-right order.

has a t-distribution with (n-1) d.f. For large sample size (say, n over 30), the new
Womens Alinav16 Sleeveless VNeck Printed Dress Sidecar Cheap Fast Delivery JMs5Xmb9lp
has an expected value equal to zero, and its variance is (n-1)/(n-3) which is close to one.
Notice that the t- statistic is related to F-statistic as follow: F = t, where F has (d.f. = 1, and d.f. = d.f. of the t-table)
You might like to use Student t-Density to obtain its P-values.
The parameters for the triangular distribution are Minimum (a), Maximum (b), and Likeliest (c). There are three conditions underlying triangular distribution:
These three parameters forming a triangular shaped distribution, which shows that values near the minimum and maximum are less apt to occur than those near the most likely value.
The following are the general Triangular density function, together with the expected value and the variance for a Triangular random variable X (a, c, b):
f(x) = 2(x-a) / [(b-a)(c-a)], for a x c f(x) = 2(b-x) / [(b-a)(b-a)], for c x b E(X) = (a + b + c) / 3 Var(X) = (a + b + c - ab - ac - bc) / 18
Given X is distributed as above, compute the tails probability P (X 0.1 OR X 0.9).
Used to generate random numbers in sampling and Monte Carlo simulation.
Comments: Special case of beta distribution.
You might like to use Goodness-of-Fit Test for Uniform and performing some numerical experimentation for a deeper understanding of the concepts.
Notice that any Uniform distribution has uncountable number of modes having equal density value; therefore it is considered as a homogeneous population.
The discrete uniform distribution describes the distribution of n equally likely events (labeled with the integers from 1 to n), each with probability 1/n.
If X is a discrete uniform random variable with parameter n, then the mean, and variance are as follows:
E(X) = (n+1)/2, Var(X) = (n -1) /12
For two populations use the F-test. For 3 or more populations, there is a practical rule known as the"Rule of 2". In this rule, one divides the highest variance of a sample by the lowest variance of the other sample. Given that the sample sizes are almost the same, and the value of this division is less than 2, then the variations of the populations are almost the same.
Notice: This important condition in analysis of variance (ANOVA and the t-test for mean differences) is commonly tested by the Levene test or its modified test known as the Brown-Forsythe test. Interestingly, both tests rely on the homogeneity of variances condition!

Sony revamps satnav line-up
Scenting summer and out to appeal to anyone who got lost or stuck in traffic during the Easter break, Sony has pointed the way to a major refresh of its Nav-U satellite navigation kit range.
The new line-up comprises four models. The NV-U52 contains 512MB of on-board memory, enough for maps covering a single country. It has a 3.5in touchscreen coated with a grease-guarding layer to keep the finger prints off.
The NV-U72T has the same display as the NV-52, but features 2GB of memory packed with maps covering all of Western Europe. It also incorporates a real-time Traffic Message Channel monitor, a feature to be found on the top-of-the-line NV-92T and which is also available as an optional extra on the in-between model, the NV-82.
The NV-82 and NV-92T both sport 4.8in, high contrast wide touchscreens, and feature integrated accelerometers to ensure the navigation and route-planning remains accurate even when the GPS signal is lost. The NV-82 has 512MB of memory, the NV-92T 2GB. Both are just 2cm thick.
All four satnavs have a Memory Stick slot for extra map storage, and come with a car adaoptor, soft case and suction mount.
The NV-U82 and NV-U92T will be available in the UK "from late spring 2007", with the NV-U72T and NV-U52 following "early summer 2007", Sony said. Prices were not disclosed.

Postpartum Support International (PSI) was founded in 1987 by Jane Honikman in Santa Barbara, California. The purpose of the organization is to increase awareness among public and professional communities about the emotional changes that women experience during pregnancy and postpartum. Approximately 15% of all women will experience postpartum depression following the birth of a child. Up to 10% will experience depression or anxiety during pregnancy. When the mental health of the mother is compromised, it affects the entire family.
PSI headquarters is located in Portland Oregon and has members all over the world, including volunteer coordinators in every one of the United States and in more than 36 other countries. PSI disseminates information and resources through its volunteer coordinators, website and annual conference. Its goal is to provide current information, resources, education, and to advocate for further research and legislation to support perinatal mental health.
PSI is a non-profit organization whose mission is to promote awareness, prevention and treatment of mental health issues related to childbearing in every country worldwide.
It is the vision of PSI that every woman and family worldwide will have access to information, social support, and informed professional care to deal with mental health issues related to childbearing. PSI promotes this vision through advocacy and collaboration, and by educating and training the professional community and the public.
Dedicated PSI members, leaders, and friends work tirelessly across all levels to meet goals of the shared PSI mission of support, education, advocacy, and research for people living with mental illness through various activities, including:

Live and breathe the story of England at royal castles, historic gardens, forts & defences, world-famous prehistoric sites and many others.
The emperor Claudius launches an invasion of southern Britain, the start of permanent occupation by the Romans.
Army units in northern Britain are stationed along the Tyne-Solway line, with forts linked by a road between Corbridge and Carlisle.
Emperor Hadrian orders the building of the wall that now bears his name, marking Rome's northern frontier. He visits Britain in AD 122 to inspect its progress.
Find out more about the building of Hadrian's Wall
Hadrian's Wall is completed, with 14 forts and an earthwork known as the Vallum to the south.
Read a description of Hadrian's Wall
Hadrian's successor, Antoninus Pius, abandons Hadrian's Wall and moves the frontier further north, where he builds a new wall of turf, the Antonine Wall.
The Antonine Wall is abandoned and Hadrian's Wall is repaired and becomes the frontier again.
Northern tribes cross the Wall into Roman territory and are said to have killed a general and his troops.
Many milecastle gates are narrowed so that they can only be used by pedestrians. Major repairs are made to the Wall itself.
Civil settlements ('vici') are set up by camp followers. Urban sprawl spreads well beyond the forts.
Activity continues on Hadrian's Wall until the end of Roman Britain.
Hadrian's Wall becomes a quarry for stone to build castles and churches, farms and houses along its line.
The conservation movement puts a stop to quarrying and seeks to protect the remains of Hadrian's Wall.
Hadrian's Wall becomes a World Heritage Site.
Learn more about Hadrian's Wall
English Heritage cares for over 400 historic buildings, monuments and places - from world-famous prehistoric sites to grand medieval castles, from Roman forts on the edges of empire to a Cold War bunker. Through these, we bring the story of England to life for over 10 million people each year. The English Heritage Trust is a charity, no. 1140351, and a company, no. 0744722, registered in England.

HomeChoice North Somerset
This site is the place to find social housing in North Somerset, as well as information on other housing options available to you. HomeChoice North Somerset is a Choice Based Lettings (CBL) scheme. All available social housing properties are advertised each week and, if you are eligible and qualify to join the register, you can express an interest in properties you want to be considered for. You can bid on up to three properties each week, either through this website or by telephone on 01934 426 330.
Please note, we have approximately 3,500 households on the HomeChoice register and more than 300 new applicants every month, with only about 600 properties becoming vacant each year. It is very unlikely that you will be successful in being offered a social housing tenancy unless you are in severe circumstances.
In the event you are successful for a property you will be asked to provide up to one month's rent in advance, so we recommend you start saving now.
